I know there are several good books out there on tuning up the
woodworking machines. I just can't bring myself around to buying one
for the tablesaw, then one for the bandsaw then one for the router
table...
Does anyone out there know of a good book that covers several machines?
It doesn't have to go crazy on them but enough to get a machine
working in good shape...
Thanks in advance....

Mark Duginske's book "Mastering Woodworking Machines", published by
Taunton. Covers TS, RAS, BS, Jointers/Planers, DP, Routahs and
Shapahs. And some methods of work to boot.

These two are also worth a look.

I feel so lucky. My local library, in a town of about 50,000, has (3)
4'x7' BAYS of woodworking books, and almost an entire bay of videos
and DVDs. Another bay of woodturning books and several of
metalworking finish out that side of the aisle.

Maybe this is a gloat! G
